Since I am going to go shoot the new scope in this weekend (max 200 yards but I am looking towards the 500+ yard future) I was wondering. When shooting long range for accuracy and meat is it better to go with a heavier bullet, or a lighter bullet?

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. - John 3:16 KJV

Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun. - Ecclesiastes 8:15 KJV

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004

for long range you are better off with a heavy for caliber high BC bullet your rifle will shoot well. Just by doing this you have cut your drop some, and your wind drift by as much as 30%. at 270 velocities there should be a noticable difference between the 130 weight and the heavier ones.
